Description
Updated throughout, this revision of Lea Brilmayers's leading casebook-CONFLICT OF LAWS: Cases and Materials-continues to challenge and enlighten your students with an understandable, balanced, and comprehensive introduction To The complex area of conflicts. The book immerses students in choice-of-law problems-the heart of conflicts-followed by a chapter on the courts' struggles for responsive approaches. Five chapters move on to cover broader topics: constitutional limitations on choice of law, personal jurisdiction, The Erie Doctrine, recognition of judgments, and conflicts in the international context. Well known for her scholarship in conflicts, Brilmayer shows the modern relevance-both theoretical and practical-of conflicts. Wherever possible, she inclues cases involving statute of limitations, corporate regulation, and other important state law issues. Revisions include extensive additions To The chapters on... personal jurisdiction, featuring important new cases, Carnival Cruise Lines v. Shute, Burnham b. Superior Court, and others international litigation, including the new Supreme Court decisions in United States v. Verdugo-Urguidez and Hartford Fire Insurance v. California and a new sample problem focusing on the Robert Maxwell bankruptcy pending in U.S. And British courts. In addition, The chapter on federal/state relations now includes Ferens v. John Deere. And the chapter on the struggle for responsive approaches features a new case on the Restatement (Second) of Conflicts.
